Re: [Jython-dev] java.comm

[<ti...@ca...>]

-> I just started writing a CNC package in Python for the SimpleStep controller
-> board. This controller board receives commands through the serial port. I
-> managed this with Mark Hammond's Win extensions for Python, but I consider
-> not to continue this way because I'ld like my programs to be portable. As
-> Python doesn't support native serial IO support, I looked at Jython. As far
-> as I could see, the Jython distribution doesn't include the javax.comm API
-> which I found at java.sun.com. So my question is: How can I get the
-> javax.comm API working with Jython?

If you install javax.comm so that Java programs can use it, then you'll
be able to use it from with Jython without any changes.  New (or old)
Java packages don't need to be "ported" to Jython...
